----First Upload 14/04/2015- Icon Blocker
This skin is a silly concept that I came up with (though I doubt I'm the first). It's more useful as a prank than a security measure. This skin is placed over any 'sensitive' icon on your desktop so that when mouse overed, it appears instantly and delivers a message of your choice. I recommend placing it over the start button
Loading Instructions, assuming you have installed both rainmeter and this skin:
Load the skin. It should appear in the top left corner of the screen (I think)
Drag it over to the desired location on your screen
Right click the Rainmeter icon in the notifications tray
Hover over IconBlocker\1IconBlocker, click Manage Skin when it pops up
Turn off Draggable
Make sure Click Through is off
Set the position to Always On Top
Perhaps hide that Rainmeter icon that sits in the notifications tray as well
PS. The screen shot doesn't show the cursor, but it is there.
----1st update 15/04/2015- Icon Defense
I have figured out how to disable the context menu when right clicking and added the windows critical error sound effect for both right click and left click.
This skin just got 10 times better It is now a lot harder to figure out and disable (for an unknowing subject, innocent or not) than the first version.
But there are other ways to access the the context menu functionality, so it's probably still best as a prank. Have fun!
